Shore Birds
Figure 10 - Wandering Tattler (Heteroscelus incanus)
The Wandering Tattler is a solitary shorebird that breeds along mountain streams in Alaska. It also performs a remarkably precise oceanic migration that takes it to remote Pacific Islands, and as far away as the Great Barrier Reef of Australia. Some individuals also winter along the west coast of Mexico and the southwestern coast of the US.
The Wilsons Phalarope is the most terrestrial of the three species of Phalaropes that occur worldwide. The Wilsons occurs only in the Americas. It breeds in shallow wetlands that occur in the prairies of North America, and winters in freshwater ponds in Argentina and other parts of South America.
